Special Holiday Salad Meal!

With many end-of-the-year holidays upon us all, we thought we’d show how a special and naturally healthy holiday meal can be made the HumanaNatura way and following HumanaNatura’s OurPlate guidelines. Other than the extra step of marinating a protein food before oven roasting , this meal is as quick and easy to make as it is festive and inviting to enjoy.

Our naturally healthier version of a traditional holiday meal begins with chicken breasts, which are marinated refrigerated for a few hours in olive oil and wine vinegar with garlic, turmeric, coriander, orange peel, finely chopped onion and figs, a scattering of anise and sesame seeds, and black pepper. The breasts are then oven roasted and basted periodically until done, and allowed to sit briefly before slicing and serving Once sliced and while still warm, the breast meat is pared with a generous half-plate of greens, julienne-cut cucumber and celery, and halved grape tomatoes. The meal is then garnished simply with roasted pistachios, parsley, garlic bits, paprika, and black pepper. Extra special but not a lot of extra work…so you have more time to spend with family and friends!
